Default Lowering Springs

Hey,

I've finally decided to lower my 96 civic, and now Im just lookin for the best prices. I'm looking for less than 2" so Eibachs is my first choice, then probably neuspeeds, and if the price is possibly tein s-techs (but i'd rather not). Any other springs less than 2" is cool too, but can anyone give the places they've found any of these the cheapest at? Ebay wasnt all it cracked up to be but it stills looks promising at times at about $150 on average.

I know I shouldnt double-post, but I also know this little part should be in the classified section too (what to do, what to do) Is anyone selling some gently used springs and willing to ship to VA? I don't want any that've been run hard or more than a 2" drop.

Thanks for reading this whole post and possibly responding

I'm using H&R OEM sport- about an inch and a half drop-$156 from Tirerack last summer. Ride is pretty good (currently with Bilstein HD's).

Go for the Neuspeed race. I loved mine, nice and stiff.
Get some shocks too. Konis or Tokicos.

Don't go with cheap springs, get performance springs. they will last longer and still lower it a bit.

I got Neuspeed Race Springs and AGX shocks and I love the ride and height. A little low for OC roads but looks and rides great. The sport version doesn't lower as much, so if you have crap roads near where you live, go with those. I got mine off ebay for $125 brand new. You will probably need a camber kit too, so don't forget about that.
